<p class="MsoNormal">Happy New Year to you all!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am very pleased to announce that a workshop entitled “Methods for the Analysis of Thermodynamic and Hydrodynamic Properties of Macromolecules and their Complexes” will be held on May 19-23, 2014 in Dallas, TX, at The University of Texas
Southwestern Medical Center. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The workshop will feature lectures on the practical aspects of performing AUC, ITC, DLS, and fluorescence spectroscopy experiments. There will also be demonstrations and step-by-step instruction on how to analyze your data using SEDFIT
and SEDPHAT, and lectures covering the theoretical underpinnings of the analyses.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The instructors will be experts with many years of experience with these technologies and analytical methods. They include Drs. Peter Schuck, Rodolfo Ghirlando, Joy Zhao, and myself.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For those of you familiar with the NIH SEDFIT/SEDPHAT workshop held annually in the spring, the format will be essentially the same. The NIH will not hold such a workshop this spring.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Watch this space in the coming weeks for more information regarding registration!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Hope to see you in May,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Chad</p>
